Reaching out for help, especially in stressful times, takes courage. And finding a therapist you can open up to is important. One of my strengths is providing a judgement-free, compassionate space for you to share your feelings, thoughts, hopes and dreams. Together, we are identifying and exploring obstacles and patterns, often that we all experience as human beings, without knowing why. I think every person is an individual and unique in his/her/their own way. I have both clinical and life experience to help with stressors related to life transitions, relationships, family issues, and work.

Sandwiched in between parental responsibilities and taking care of aging parents? Do you need help navigating and coping with these issues? Therapy can be a real opportunity to better understand yourself, behaviors, choices, opportunities and ultimately improve your overall quality of life. By examining your feelings, thoughts, and repeating patterns you can gain insight, unlock potential and can ultimately be mobilized to change.

My goal is to create a safe, non-judgmental, and empowering space for people to explore the depths of their emotions, thoughts and feelings. Using supportive reflection and a strengths-based perspective, I approach each situation with empathy.

I have experience coordinating crisis interventions and employing Dialectical Behavior Therapy with patients who harm others or themselves, and particularly those who have experienced violence within their family network.

When's the last time you really felt heard? That someone was truly listening to you & what you had to say, instead of just waiting for their turn to speak? In these times when social media seemingly offers instant connections to anyone, yet can still leave you feeling unheard, unseen and disconnected from everyone, having someone give you their undivided attention and consideration can be a rare find. I am that rare find.
